Tasting Notes:

Orange pink in color and rich with strawberry and red fruit flavors. Lively and fresh with citrus, floral, and spice notes adding complexity on the palate, this rose is dry with good structure and a smooth finish.

A creamy and suave rosé, with rich flavors of ripe cherry, plum compote and spice that extend on the plush, minerally finish.
